Re: Velvet deer Damn good job, Jim! Get those horns in the freezer quick, they'll rot and you won't be able to do chit wit 'em. I killed an eight a couple years ago that I planned to do the same thing. I don't have a clue how to deal with 'em but they go to hell fast. I'm curious how to preserve the velvet...

Re: Velvet deer I watched a YouTube video yesterday that showed putting the rack in a box with borax for 6-8 weeks but that won't work with the head still on. I think they inject with formaldehyde. I've done several euros but gonna let somebody in the know do this one to preserve the velvet.

Re: Velvet deer Thx guys. Would have been after the teal but both my buds were out of town and plus we haven't seen the first one. Gonna give them at least a few weeks off. Probably won't hunt much over there again until November. It's literally right across the road from the house.

Re: Velvet deer Glad you found him will! He's a nice one. Was the velvet lighter than that when you shot him? Just asking to see if the heat or the time he was out there affected it.

Re: Velvet deer He was toast. Velvet would rub off with your fingers. Actually only went 150yards with a straight up bad, bad, bad gut shot using a Dead Ringer Freak Nasty. I'll shoot another next weekend and try to actually hit the goodies... Haha. I'd felt better saying I missed than that. But it happens if you shoot at enough of them... Bad terrain for tracking, wish I knew someone close with a good dog because I got within 20 feet but could not find it in the Holly.
